Went to a retail park this morning. Got there 2 minutes past opening time so oodles of parking.

Came back to the car about 30 mins later, still oodles of parking but someone thought my car was lonely so parked on top of it at an angle.

Genuinely thought I was getting in via the passenger side but approaching from the back I could squeeze in. (I had reversed in)

Thankfully there was no car on the other side so I could swing out past the "angle" of the other car.

Whatever when carpark is busy and spaces are few (and you might have no option to park tight), but when carpark is empty at least try to park straight and between the lines.

It took all my restraint not to "accidentally" ding the other car.

When insurance companies give you a price but you've to add the extras you want yourself because they aren't included in the price

Mother of god, the hotel was like Fawlty Towers yesterday. It's like they didn't realise Punchestown was on or something.

Twitter. I have an account for mostly soccer tweets , but rarely use it otherwise. I tweeted a fix for the uk lottery app that's giving trouble , but I don't know how to find it on the phone.

The Chase celebrity edition. I just watched Sean Wallace completely throw the final chase.

I was in woodies yesterday...it wasn't a planned visit but it was beside the shop I wanted (I had totally forgotten about that)!

Absolutely chucking down but I wanted compost so put on the big girl pants and out to the outdoor garden part I went.

Took me ages to lift each bale into the trolley as I'm only lickle and the bale weighs about the same as me! The bales are soaking and obviously dirty, as I'm trying to grab one bale the pallet above has reached its capacity of rainwater and overflows right down my back.

Finally get them all loaded. I now look like a drowned rat and proceed to checkout....upon reaching the checkout I see bales of nice clean dry compost behind the checkouts.....grrrrr!

Helicopters are back, baby... for ferrying our VIP overlords to Punchestown and joyrides (for a price of course) for the less fortunate.

Climate what now? Don't you remember, the protesting schoolkids fixed that?

Trivial one but why doesnt Angela Merkel speak English, same with the current german PM? Surely given how often they interact with English speaking nations they are required to learn it? But I never once saw her give any speech in English, the translators were always present. I appreciate it isnt their native tongue but its like they never cared enough to learn a word of it and apply it to their many appearances outside of their home country.

Her opinion is that what she says should clear and concise with no ambiguity. She feels that this is only possible in her native language. It is not like a footballer where nothing they say is of any consequence. Also German is the most widely spoken first language in the EU. English is not even in the top 5.

New Home · 02-05-2022 9:35pm

Also, for all we know she may speak Spanish or French or Latvian or whatever very fluently.

How many Irish politicians bother their hole to give speeches in french or German?

Annoys me how it’s so easy to accept cookies/tracking but you have to go through multiple awkward steps to reject as many as possible at times

ie, ‘accept all’ or ‘cookie settings’ being the two options

Not feeling tired after a long tough weekend knowing I have to get up in 5 hours....( I know I should be off the phone)...

Strumms · 03-05-2022 2:52am

Myself and cousins, aunts and uncles will be heading to celebrate my mothers birthday tomorrow. A really nice pub out by the coast that’s been a favourite of hers… My Dad for whatever reason hates pubs… despite three tables being reserved for 11 of us in a really nice place with great views over Portmarnock he’s trying to encourage or was trying to encourage us to all go to theirs…

we could order food in but the associated preparations, cutlery …clean up, overall hosting is just a ballache… as usual my dad would be doing the hosting ( yapping ) and left for the most part for others including my mother as is her nature to want to be looking after everyone… pub restaurant you just get there ‘sit down’, get a menu, order, be waited on, no preparation, effort, washing up or hosting…

Now he’s talking about ‘leaving us all to it’ and he’ll stay at home… which is fine but if he causes a scene on departure I’ll flip… but I can see it…

It is Trvial , but incredibly annoying. How , due to Coronation Street and brit tv in general, but I've noticed it's creeped into Ireland, is the pronunciation of Deidre. If I've spelt it right. Its pronounced Dear-dra, not fcuking Dear-dree.

WhatsApp groups for everything. I know WhatsApp is handy but you get stuck in groups forever and end up muting them, but then you're afraid you'll miss something. If I wasnt in the group I wouldn't know or care what was going on.

In partiuclar, I dont like businesses using them to communicate with customers. There's a lack of privacy and too much 'noise'.

PsychoPete · 03-05-2022 5:06pm

I won't join any WhatsApp group, if someone wants me they can text me or ring me

cj maxx · 03-05-2022 11:25pm

I have a sub to sky sports. But today I was unplugging sky and aerials to get the Liverpool game on rte. Now it keeps asking me to insert a card !. I've no sky docs etc. A long day tomorrow listening to your Scottish bird 😡

People who take up a seat on busy buses for their bag, then get all rolly eyes when you ask them to move it.

Also, the crowd who insist on standing around the middle of the bus when there are seats down the back, meaning anyone who gets on after them can't get to them. Just fcuking sit down!

Pawwed Rig · 04-05-2022 9:39am

When you do the polite thing and respond to a recruiter saying No thanks I am not interested after them contacting you uninvited. Then they come back asking me to recommend "someone from my network" for the position. GTFO

Just seen someone use She/her pronouns beside their name on LinkedIn.

Fcuk off.

Just realised I was scrolling through LinkedIn

Having a D reg jeep driving though rural Mayo.

I may as well have a union jack flagpole drilled into the roof

madmaggie · 04-05-2022 1:40pm

Is it flor-al or flo-ral? I go with the latter, but mostly hear the former.

This isn't TA as in annoying but TA as in angry. Seeing good decent hard-working people getting crucified by a bank. It's still going on.
